Last Ark of the Railroad

The Steamship City of Milwaukee

Tour through a railcar ferry that operated on the Great Lakes for over fifty years. A story that serves as a testimonial to her services and the people who maintain it.

The Steam Ship City of Milwaukee is a National Historic Landmark as well as a member of the Historic Naval Ship Association. Built at the beginning of the Great Depression, the City of Milwaukee shuttled railcars across Lake Michigan for over fifty years. She is currently moored in Manistee, Michigan and is open to the public as a floating museum. Get your copy here.
